Sister Joan Chittister mentioned this book as containing a story from her second grade, where she learned that her Protestant father would go to hell. She recounts the impactful conversation she subsequently had with her mother about this.
I was in second grade...that day somehow or other in in religion class sister taught that Protestants don't go to heaven.
I can remember when I retell that story the terrible shock that went through my system. I mean I was seven and a half or eight years old and I knew we were in trouble.
